Considered Both Products
BILL Spend & Expense
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
BILL Spend & Expense was one of the more affordable options, very user friendly and very good for creating easy ways to pay through BILL Spend & Expense or to assign budgets through BILL Spend & Expense. Some of the other options did offer more features but we did not normally …
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
Bill Spend & Expense and Ramp are pretty comparable, but we ended up making the change to Ramp based on three factors:
1. The actual receipt or invoice uploads into Sage Intacct, so when reviewing financials, everything is in one place.
2. The cashback program was much simpler …
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
We also used other credit cards for employee to use, such as bank issued credit card or Capital One issued credit card, so far Divvy Card is the best one. Users have very positive using experience. Accounting is also happy with this card since it is easy to manage and control …
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
Have not compared or used other systems.
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
We used Expensify previously and strongly prefer BILL. Expensify had no fraud protection, it was almost impossible to speak with a customer service rep, and the reconciliation process was tedious and clunky.
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
I haven't used anything like Divvy before.
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
Divvy was much more affordable (free) compared to Concur. It has all the functionally as Concur with a free, alternative solution. We selected Divvy because it helped us achieve three things; capture receipts, allow users to spend within their budgets, and set budgets to …
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
Chase One Card Program

This program is like Divvy's program but it is not user-friendly and is not easy-to-use software. It is very easy to make mistakes and break the system. Divvy is a much more superior product, and I would highly recommend it to anyone especially to advise …
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
We haven't evaluated any other products.
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
We have used American Express and BOA and while they both give you the standard use of a credit card, neither one allows you to do all the things that Divvy does. Virtual cards, budget increases, categorization, receipt maintenance. Divvy is the only one we have tried of this …
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
We also researched other paid products (e.g. SAP Concur) and Divvy is far and beyond a better UI with all necessary features while they continue to improve and build out other fancy features.
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
Divvy is the provider of the credit cards. Expensify and Concur only connects your outside cards to their system.
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
There is no comparison to how easy Divvy is vs any other way of expense reporting because Divvy is real-time.
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
Nothing out there compares to the agility and ease of use of Divvy. Adoption by those most resistant to any expense reporting tool has always been the #1 painpoint to all other such software.

Divvy takes the pain away even for creatives and salespeople!
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
We have really only used PNC's business credit cards. Their system was strange and they were not very helpful when we had issues.
Chose BILL Spend & Expense
We used to use our bank corporate cards which are antiquated compared to Bill S&E.

Chose Precoro
Precoro is unique because it can be customizable from start to finish without needing to build in API. It is extremely easy to use and understand, so we did not need to give our employees extensive training as we did with Tradogram. Precoro also allowed us to communicate about …
Chose Precoro
Precoro is much easier to use and faster to implement than SAP Ariba, Coupa, or Oracle. It offers the right features without the complexity or high cost, helping us improve efficiency and control spend quickly.

Likelihood to Recommend
Divvy is well suited for almost any organization/business I can think of. If you need to spend money from a specific predetermined budget, Divvy works great. If you have a high volume of transactions and you're fairly decent with excel, you can create an upload file to move transactions into your general ledger (currently only QB is supported for plug ins). If I'm really trying to find a less appropriate example, maybe if you have employees who can have a large credit limit and need to travel a lot, an Amex card might have better benefits.

Budget tracking on expenditure by departments - Precoro assists with budget tracking on the total budget which is allocated to each department. If the budget has been exhausted an alert is made for exceptional approval to the budget.
Duplication of invoices. When a supplier bills us the same invoice twice, Precoro makes a notification that an invoice with the same number was already uploaded for payment.

Cons
  • Logging into more than one company or ease of logging into more than one company at a time.

  • The "bundles" in Precoro are not actually bundles. I would like to connect 2 of our catalog items together so that when 1 is selected for purchasing, the other item is required
  • Sometimes the comments wont properly tag a person that we're trying to tag
  • More options to customize the approval workflow based on location
  • Ability to edit where we're buying an item from without having to deny the request

Usability
The Divvy card provides convenience and flexibility for Finance to manage and monitor each user's transactions at any time. User can issue many virtual cards for different purposes. Transactions can be easily approved. Since we can monitor transaction closely, fraud can be prevented effectively. Mobile app is user friendly and safe.

Support Rating
We have enjoyed using Divvy and its functions. The Divvy team has been great, and their support team is outstanding. They have a chatbox on the platform, and they only seem to be someone on call. I have found its benefits to be outstanding, that I recommend it to my clients. I also feel that Divvy rolling out new features only makes it more compelling to stay on as a user.

Thanks [to] Precoro, we easily go through procurement workflow and manage all of our POs in a couple of minutes. We had a great experience with the Precoro team which helped us with installation of the software.

Alternatives Considered
Bill Spend & Expense and Ramp are pretty comparable, but we ended up making the change to Ramp based on three factors: 1. The actual receipt or invoice uploads into Sage Intacct, so when reviewing financials, everything is in one place. 2. The cashback program was much simpler and a higher rate than what we were getting. 3. We were bringing our A/P processing into a cloud solution, and wanted to be able to have them on the same one as our credit cards. This fact, combined with point 1, and just a slightly different payment flexibility, made the difference for us. Leaving out those points, which might not matter as much to someone else in a different situation, Bill Spend and Expense is a solid solution for anyone.

Precoro is unique because it can be customizable from start to finish without needing to build in API. It is extremely easy to use and understand, so we did not need to give our employees extensive training as we did with Tradogram. Precoro also allowed us to communicate about orders right within the order itself, where the other software did not.

Return on Investment
  • Immediate ROI for any company who wants their teams to focus on driving new revenues, creating great products or over delivering to customers - instead of chasing receipts 30 days behind.
  • Ease of use and a great sales and tech support team at Divvy ensure successful onboarding with each and every employee.
  • Immediate ROI from being able to have an agile budgeting process - cashflows improve immediately when budget spend is captured in real-time, and new opportunities are captured when approvals are that easy.

  • Our problem before implementing Precoro was a lot of manual tasks, from managing catalogs to creating reports. Now all related processes are in one place, and it's faster to create a purchase order, track it, and get products in time. Also, the overall visibility increased. We can see all purchases and their impacts on our budget. Reports is the most customizable module, so we can get the data we need. Thanks to our CSM for fast onboarding and help!
